TARDIS USB Hub

This makes me wish I didn't get a computer with 8,000 USB connections on it.

Not My Soul Mate

Diatonic, bisonoric accordion (or melodeon):



This is my newer, less smelly, less button sticky, more shiny, more colorful, and less fun accordion. It is not my soul mate. I only use it for its body.

Look Ma; No Straps!

This gentleman is playing an accordion with... a stand? Like wtf?

Someone posted this link on an accordion newsgroup. (Someone also replied saying the guy in the video looks like a cross between Bill Gates and a hyena.)

EDIT: Here's another video of the same guy with what looks like the same accordion. This is actually the type (chromatic button accordion) that I want to get if I get a new one.

Accordian

Me: "Accordion" is misspelled a lot. When I went to [Music Store I Went To], it was misspelled on the tag for books about accordion.
Brothery: A-C-C-O-R-D-I-N-G - Accordion.

Me: If I want to study the accordion, I might have to move to a place where people actually care about accordions...
Brothery: Does such a place exist?

The Power of Math

Frylock: I can't just... bring you back to life.
Master Shake: Come on; you can do it. You know? You're like . . . a math guy.
Frylock: I don't think that math is going to bring you back from the dead.

--

Master Shake: I would say don't talk to me again, but I'm not talking to you. So . . . there's no point in saying it . . . because you're not even here!

--

(Frylock reads Master Shake's suicide note)
Master Shake: Friends, relations, whatever the hell Meatwad is, I've lived a full life. It's actually been pretty bitchin'! But no, regrettably, my life has been taken. Please bury me with all my stuff, because you know it's mine. Dear Meatwad, turn on that dumb game, because I'm gonna wail on you from the grave, Baby! Missing you already, M.S.

Frylock: Well, could Billy Witch Doctor dot com maybe raise something else from the dead? Bigger than a chicken?
Billy: Mega Ultra Chicken? No, shhhh, he is legend!
Frylock: Well, no, I mean, I was thinkin' more like a human . . . milk shake . . . or something like that.
Billy: Ohhhh...Billy Witch Doctor dot com feel more comfortable with chicken.
Frylock: Just chickens huh? Ok, and you're local?
Billy: One convenient locations . . . in Africa.

My Soul Mate

This, dear readers, is my reason for getting out of bed every morning.



Two sets of reeds. 41 slim, glossy keys of wonder. 120 booming bass buttons of fury.

When I got this accordion as a child, I was happy. The next morning, I woke up... and it took me a while to remember that I had my own accordion. As soon as I remembered, I was happy.

Disappointment

It makes good drinks bad and bad drinks funny;
It's the Game of Disappointment.

All you need to play is a beverage in an opaque cup with a lid . . . and your imagination. Here's how to play:

Pick up the cup. Whatever beverage is in the cup, imagine that it's something else. Concentrate. Focus. Then drink. Try and be disappointed! Play by yourself, or with friends. Whoever is most disappointed wins.

Note: This game works best if the beverage is one you do not like. You also must know what the beverage in the cup is to play; knowing what it is is what makes it so challenging to imagine that it's something else. It is also acceptable to know - and then forget - the type of beverage in the cup, but it is difficult to make yourself forget something, instantaneously and on purpose. Plus, it takes away from the challenge. Bottom line?

NOT KNOWING WHAT THE DRINK IS IS AGAINST THE RULES UNLESS YOU GENUINELY FORGET.

WARNING: Not responsible for burns/toothaches due to imagined temperature difference. Imagine with caution.

Classic Smallville Badness

http://youtube.com/watch?v=TXoBe-_QDEQ

OMG I THINK A SMALLVILLE WRITER IS TRYING TO DRIVE ME TO SUICIDE LOL

Lex Luthor: Considering your extraordinary abilities, it's hard to believe Miss Lane escaped from you, unless perhaps you wanted her to. After all the years we've been together, you turn on me now.
Kara: You're like my brother, Lex. You know I'll always be loyal to you.

. . .

Lex Luthor: You disappoint me, Kara. With everything my family's done for you, you question my judgment.
Kara: It's only because I care about you.
Lex Luthor: Since the day my father found your ship submerged in the Reeves dam, he loved you like you were his own daughter. He died guarding your secret from the world.
Kara: I know, and I owe my life to both of you, but this country--
Lex Luthor: What do you know about protecting this country?! You are an alien. I am the President of the United States of America. By striking the enemy first I am ensuring our survival. We will prevail. And through it all I expect you to st--
Kara: *is looking down slowly*
Lex Luthor: LOOK AT ME! I expect you to stand by my side.
Kara: Of course, Mr. President.

New Computer

Technically I got this computer about a month ago, but that's still basically new. I bought a power supply, case and motherboard (with memory), then transferred in my old floppy drive, CD drive, hard drive and sound card (the motherboard has onboard video). I also put in a fan from my old computer but you can't see that in the photo.



I know it looks like a mess in there. The power supply seemed to come with about 100 power connectors that I would never use.

The case isn't terribly impressive; just a regular black case, so I see no reason to post a photo of that. The inside isn't terribly impressive either, but I'm proud that I put it all together myself (except technically the guy at Intrex installed the memory, but that's one of the easy parts).

Woohoo! Original Diablo works with Windows Vista!

Is it just me, or is this bridge unnecessary?



It really looks to me like my Rogue could pretty much step over this little stream of water. Or at least hop.

Then again, maybe the bridge is for small, crippled children, like Wirt.

Also, why do the bats have to make such innocent whimpering noises? I go along killing skeletons and gross monsters and then it's like all of a sudden, there are cute little puppy monsters.

Why the Original Doctor Who was Cancelled

http://youtube.com/watch?v=jNLrgNmmPlM

Think that clip doesn't make sense?
It makes even less sense if you watch the entire episode.

The Master: I command here. I command you. You've no power over me; I can do anything I wish to you and you can do nothing; nothing, to me.
Confusing Cheetah Woman: Do you bleed? I can always do something to you . . . if you bleed.

The Problem with Roleplaying Games

...That are fun to play more than once is the following.

Me with Level 99 Lightning/Cold Hybrid Sorceress: Oh, this game is totally awesome! I finally defeated the Master Grand Master Super Giant Butterfly Lion Champion! I should build a new character and play again!
Me with Level 1 Dual-Weapon Cleric: Wow; I can't believe I just stood here fighting a Butterfly Maggot for over 2 minutes.

I introduced Yammy to Baldur's Gate II: Dark Alliance.

Me: *levels up* I'm going to save my skill point.
Yammy: OK.

. . . Later . . .

Yammy: *leaves the room to check on her laundry*
Me: *secretly applies a point to Animate Dead*
Yammy comes back.
Yammy and I are going along killing monsters.
Me: *runs in circles*
Yammy: *chases my Skeleton* What the Hell? Where's he going? Is the Skeleton unkillable?
Me: *maniacal laughter*

Miscellanea

Did you know there's a Beanie Skeleton?

http://buysellbeanies.com/?mainURL=%2Fstore%2Fitem%2Fmt4o%2FTy_Beanie_Babies_Beanie_Babies_for_2001%2FCreepers_skeleton_9_2001.html%3Fitem_id%3Dmt4o

I find the concept of stuffed skeletal toys amusing because skeletons are inherently unstuffed in nature.

from Aqua Teen Hunger Force:

"It is the BROODWICH; forged in darkness from wheat harvested in Hell's half-acre; baked by Beelzebub; slathered with mayonnaise beaten from the evil eggs of dark chicken forces into sauce by the hands of a one-eyed madman; cheese boiled from the rancid teat of a maimed cow; layered with 666 separate meats from an animal which has maggots for blood!"

Shake: I tasted mustard.

"Yeah... Dijon mustard."

"didn't work well with printer"

Under the reviews...

"did not meet our expectations. photos came out terrible."

...Yet he/she gave it 3 out of 5 stars.

And also:

"Yes, I would recommend this to a friend"
